The view of Serkan with the towel wrapped around his hips has not yet left Eda's thoughts as she puts on makeup to go to the awards ceremony. Eda sighs as she remembers him staring at her while he was leaving the bathroom to put on his clothes. "This is just a contract, Eda!" she tries to think and rearrange her thoughts, realizing that she needs to finish her makeup and put on her dress.

Meanwhile Serkan is happy to realize that he has managed to upset Eda's balance, after all, nothing fairer after she pissed him off with the "can't swim" lie. At that time when he's finishing up he keeps wondering how provoking her has become something so fun and personal, so he shakes his head and tells himself that this is nothing more than a game. As Serkan throws his thoughts about Eda away, he hears the door opening and he is surprised, amazed and has no reaction. Eda has a black sandal on her feet, a heel he sees little because a long emerald green dress covers almost all of her feet. The dress marks her entire neck up and has medium—sized straps with a neckline. He looks at her in slow motion trying to return to his normal, Eda doesn't realize that he is admiring her as if she were the most beautiful view. He looks at her face and she is wearing a beautiful makeup, her lips are pink and her hair is tied on one side with curls at the ends, running down her shoulders.

— Serkan? Hello? I'm ready, can we go? — Eda says with a small smile passing his hand in front of his face to get his attention.

— Of course, uh, you are very beautiful, you will make Selin very jealous of you — says Serkan coughing, almost choking on the woman in front of him. At that time he tries to disguise his slight moment with the look of his "fiancée".

— Sure, after all we are here for this, but do you promise me we'll go for a walk tomorrow? We are on the beach and we can't help but enjoy this view and this wonderful place.

— Okay, tomorrow we are going for a walk, but now can we go to the awards? Before we're late and I can't keep up with the ceremony.

Eda rolls her eyes; Serkan ignores it and puts his arm giving the cue for her first pass. They look at each other and as if the world is still, Eda starts to feel that she needs to hold on to him and Serkan feels the same feeling when looking at Eda. He gets in the elevator with her and Eda feels that everything is fine, as if nothing bad could happen there at that moment. They arrive on the awards floor and Serkan helps Eda to get out of the elevator. She takes Serkan's arm and smells his perfume, a wonderful smell that makes her dizzy.

Eda thinks "why does he have to be so fragrant and so handsome? Calm down, Eda, it's just a fake engagement!"

Upon arriving at the ballroom, Eda and Serkan stunned everyone with such chemistry and attunement, they look like a very passionate couple and there is no doubt, both are the most beautiful couple at the party, making Selin very jealous, anger and sadness because she was the one who should be beside him, not Eda, a florist, simple and she doesn't understand why Serkan is so delighted and decided to be engaged. Beside her is Ferit, a man she likes but doesn't love.

Eda and Serkan arrive with their fingers interlocked, approaching the team and greeting everyone who eagerly awaits the result of the award. Selin watches how Serkan looks at Eda, with admiration, with love? Eda, as much as Selin doesn't like her, she looks beautiful, wearing an emerald green dress. Selin and Ferit go to Eda and Serkan to greet them. Selin is wearing a purple dress with feathers falling on the hem and earrings that look more like an allegory, while Eda as always looks simple and elegant.
